This lecture gives an introduction to infrastructure as code and automation. It helps frame why you should be using the Jenkins Job DSL / Pipelines rather than freestyle projects.

This lecture gives an introduction of the Jenkins Job DSL

A demo that shows how to use the Jenkins Job DSL with a NodeJS app

A demo of the Job DSL using docker build and publish functionality

An introduction to the Jenkins Pipelines (using the Jenkinsfile)

A demo showing how to integrate JFrog Artifactory with Jenkins

Sometimes there are no plugins available for the integration you want, but there is still an option to write your own Custom API integration.

A demo on how the BitBucket API can be integrated within a Jenkins Pipeline.

If you want to continuously check on code quality, SonarQube should be integrated within Jenkins.

This demo shows you how to install Sonarqube on your DigitalOcean droplet

This demo explains how to scan your project and send the results to the SonarQube server.

How to scale Jenkins? You can add more worker nodes! This lecture explains you how and why.

The benefits and the best practices of using Jenkins worker nodes (Jenkins Slaves). The do's and don'ts

This demo shows you how to set up a slave using SSH on the slave.

Windows nodes can best be set up with JNLP. This demo explains you how to setup a windows slave and a Linux slave, both with JNLP.

The new Jenkins UI is called Blue Ocean. This lecture tells you everything about it.

This demo shows you how to activate and use Blue Ocean

This lecture explains the usage of ssh-agent within Jenkinsfiles. It's always best to use ssh-agent/credentials rather than manually putting the credentials/keys in place.

This demo shows you how to use the ssh-agent to make custom git calls to github/bitbucket.

Take into account these security best practices to keep your Jenkins secure.

This lecture explains the differences between authentication and authorization

A demo explaining how authorizations work in Jenkins

You can plugin authentication providers into Jenkins rather than saving the login and password in a local database. This lecture talks about OneLogin, LDAP, ActiveDirectory (AD), and SAML
